I used the Avent pads, those are pretty good but I think Lansinoh are the best. I was a big leaker, soaked through many pads a day until my boobs got adjusted around 6 or 7 months. I still leak and have been nursing my 3rd for over 2 years but don't use the pads much anymore. I have the Lily pads and used them a total of 2 times, mainly when I was in my mega-leaker stage. The thing that I didn't like about them was putting them back on. You just can't be subtle about it. After you peel them off for breastfeeding (nearly impossible to do that in a subtle fashion), then you have to wash them, dry them and reapply. If it is going to be your go-to nursing pads, you definitely need 2 or 3 pairs. I think they would work better for me now that I'm not nursing so much and I'm not leaking so much. But if you are nursing a lot and leaking a lot and going to be out and about with the baby, I wouldn't recommend the Lily Pads. I haven't used the other ones that collect milk.

The Lansinoh are my favorites... But I know what you about leaking when you lay down... I would keep a burp cloth or receiving blanket under the "girls" at night for back up.. And sometimes stuff one down my tank.. Just in case... Changing bed sheets get old..
